The Super Emotional Mystery Nebuta

Can't we do something about this Nebuta?

Mom said, looking at the wax-drawn Kongming.

Like, you know, just a little more... you know.

What do you mean?

Well, it's just... I have it in my head, but the name won't come out. You know...

Well, I don't know what you're talking about. What is it?

You know, that... that drama that's on now. The one with Osamu Mukai.

Paripi Koumei?

Yes, that's it! Can't we make it all sparkly like that?

Sparkly... well, we'll paint it when it's all done, and then we'll light it up from the inside.

No, not that! You know, the ones they have at K's Denki for a high price! Those computers that change to purple or green!

Ah, a gaming PC?

Can't you make it look like that?

In seven colors?

Mom grinned and left the scene.
